@Coletracer bet you wish you still had that sweet ride

@saragoodtimes I went through a lot of sweet rides but I miss my 1969 Ford Torino Talladega the most.

Degbeme · 70-79, M
@akindheart My buddy had one with the gas heater. You were literally cooking inside it when it was on. 😅
Trippy · F

@SumKindaMunster I loved that year. 😍
SW-User
Mine was a 69 Camaro. And I didn't like it cuz I was too dumb to know what I had. It was blue with white racing stripes.
Orangehotrod · 61-69, M
@SW-User I have a 69 Cameron so now.
SW-User
@Orangehotrod really. I wish I still had mine now but at the time I was spoiled and wanted a new car.
Orangehotrod · 61-69, M
@SW-User I wish I had a lot of cars back! I have done the same thing.
Degbeme · 70-79, M
That is sweet! 😍 Congratulations. Be safe. 🤗

Yeah my first car was a 66 Chevelle.
@Degbeme got a 60/40 split on the house plus he paid all the closing costs, realtor fee and taxes and upkeep until it sold. it was fair
Trippy · F
@Degbeme Thank you ❤️ Little, don't take much gas but the freedom to get around when I wish this far has been priceless 😎🤟
Degbeme · 70-79, M
@Trippy 🤘
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
1962 Buick Skylark Special, maroon red with white vinyl top and white bucket seats.
Trippy · F
@cherokeepatti Sounds very cool! 🙂
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@Trippy I thought it was when I would wash and wax it and go to Sonic with my friend on Saturday night and some would give a compliment
Trippy · F
@cherokeepatti That's an awesome memory!!
Indy74 · 46-50, F
Chevy chevette!! Lol!! Paid $100 for it.
Indy74 · 46-50, F
@Trippy exactly!! I love your bike. I wanna learn to ride eventually.
Trippy · F
@Indy74 Cool!! Very economic and not as intimidating as I'd thought. 🙂
Indy74 · 46-50, F
@Trippy amazing my friend!! Riding a motorcycle just makes you feel free and have freedom!!☺
FreeSpirit1 · 51-55, F
Yea a 1981 Dodge Charger my Dad bought me.
Trippy · F
@FreeSpirit1 We can ride round' and holla at dudes🤭 Just gotta hang on. Still learning the foot shift thingy.
FreeSpirit1 · 51-55, F
@Trippy My son has a Harley.
Trippy · F
@FreeSpirit1 Very cool!!! My dad had one. Nothin' quite like the feeling on riding on one 🙂
Maybe the best FREEDOM! feeling ever. Mine was a 1959 VW Beetle, 18 yrs old when I bought her.
Trippy · F
@Mamapolo2016 OMG!! I love those Bugs!! Know nothing about cars but that cute iconic shape always appealing to me 😎🤟
@Trippy I remember a trip on a highway. Bug was determined and had a lot of endurance, but not much speed. I was passing a truck on a hill when a fast mean car came up behind me at 1000 mph and I was in the way. He laid on the horn and blinked his lights but there wasn't a lot me & Bug could do.

Finally I put my arm out and slapped the door like a jockey on a racehorse, and the guy laughed in my rearview and dropped back until I could get around the truck. 😂
Zaphod42 · 46-50, M
It was a 4 door 1970 Chevelle Malibu with a limited edition 307 V8, hunter green.
Trippy · F
@Zaphod42 Sounds sweet 😎🤟
Zaphod42 · 46-50, M

@Zaphod42 One thing for certain: Freedom is a beautiful thing ❤️😎🤟

@Trippy NINJA is a fantastic series.. Four stroke smoothness works like cream to jumping kilometers in few seconds. highway killer which eats up the road. Mine older ninja braking saved me from a fall from the cliff
Trippy · F
@KA9ha I've been on the back of one, so have experienced it's rocket like acceleration. 🏍️😎🤟

Bugger. Yew rogered yerself....wiff that turn mate.
Trippy · F
@Freeranger Pretty solid bead on that guardrail by the looks of it 😏
ArishMell · 70-79, M
Yes - mine was a motorcycle too. A 250cc BSA 'Star'.
ArishMell · 70-79, M
@Trippy That was the maximum size you could ride as a learner at the time. I don't know what it is now, but it's a lot less in c.c. though probably not much less in HP.
Trippy · F
@ArishMell Interesting. Just a class M cert. on your Drivers license needed where I live🤷‍♀️
ArishMell · 70-79, M
@Trippy Over the years they've done more than just reduce the size of bike a learner can use here. They have also extended the test to include a written exam as well as the practical riding test - but I think this is applies to all motor-vehicles not just motorbikes.

A tragic phenomenon has arisen among men (mainly) who passed their tests years ago on fairly modestly powered motorcycles, then might have gone on to ride big 500cc and above machines for a few years. Having not been on a bike for 40 or 50 years, but now retired with a reasonable pension and savings they have treated themselves to motorbikes of similar capacity but much greater power... And too many have found the modern bikes too powerful for their lost experience, with a quite a number fatally crashing.
cd4259 · 61-69, M
HD Holden station wagon, with 179 red motor & three on the tree.
Trippy · F
@cd4259 Have no idea what that means, but sounds cool 😎🤟
cd4259 · 61-69, M
@Trippy it was a late 50's car that was the common car for Australians to drive back in the day. Basic by today's standard but awesome and fun to drive, plus almost unkillable
Trippy · F
@cd4259 Very cool!
Majorsite · 61-69, M
Yes, A purple Toyota Corona station wagon !
Majorsite · 61-69, M
@Trippy Partied hard, And slept in the back a lot !

Eclipsed · M
Congratulations!
Trippy · F
@Eclipsed Thankies ❤️ Kinda simple but I worked for that little bad boy 😎🤟
Eclipsed · M
@Trippy it's great. I'll never forget traveling and driving in a fairly big city. It was spring and the streets were strangely empty, and I stopped at a stop light and right along the side of me a girl pulled up on a motorcycle. Something about it. She just looked so beautiful and free.. like a bird flying.. if that makes sense.. it made a lasting impact in my memories. This is a great thing you did for yourself.
AnthroKenji · 36-40, M
It was a 95 Honda Accord Ex :)
trackboy · 22-25, M

SubstantialKick · 31-35, M
